Everyone wants more horsepower and any dealer will sell it to you, but there never seems to be a focus on actually riding, and training to get the most out of what you have. What a waste.

I've had my tire cut loose twice, once in the rain the other in the bitter cold. The first time i did it in the rain i caught it. The second time wasn't as fortunate as the first lol...

The guy must be very inexperienced - he was dragging his feet and his right foot never even got on to the peg before he dumped it. I guess he really had no clue what would happen when he twisted the throttle.
